In a display of support for the transgender community, several actors from the 'Harry Potter' franchise, including Eddie Redmayne, Paapa Essiedu, and Katie Leung, signed an open letter condemning a recent UK Supreme Court ruling. The actors believe this ruling threatens the safety of transgender individuals and undermines their lived realities. Expressing the transformative power of film and television, they emphasize the necessity of empathy and education in challenging societal perceptions. Many other British actors joined this initiative to advocate for the rights of trans, non-binary, and intersex communities.
"We the undersigned film and television professionals stand in solidarity with the trans, non-binary and intersex communities who have been impacted by the Supreme Court ruling on April 16."
"We believe the ruling undermines the lived reality and threatens the safety of trans, non-binary and intersex people living in the UK."
